The album cover, which was seemingly generated by artificial intelligence, is gaining a lot of attention as many fans expressed their true feelings about the artwork.
"i speak for everyone when i say 'we are not rockin with album cover, please change it,'" one wrote.
"It's gonna be great and psychedelic, but the cover ass imo," another one wrote.
"Lil Yachty going from incredible cover art by Kurto for Poland, to a s***** AI cover for his album. You hate to see it," one expressed.

Another Lil Yachty Album Leaked Prior to Latest Announcement
The recent announcement comes a few weeks after Lil Yachty's unreleased album titled "Sonic Ranch" reportedly leaked online.
According to Hype Beast, the first set of leaked songs were first listened by fans on Christmas day, December 25, 2022. The project was allegedly one of the rapper's projects last year along with a mixtape from his record label, Concrete Boys, but it was not officially released to the public.
Fans who claimed to have listened to the album were excited about the musician's new sound as the leaked record was reportedly "alternative" mixed with psychedelic elements, which is similar to Tame Impala.
Despite his music making rounds online without officially dropping it, Lil Yachty remained silent and did not react on the issue. However, he replied to a fan's tweet with a sad face emoji.
